Junior School Overview

Our personalised approach allows our teachers to develop a comprehensive understanding of each student's strengths, challenges, and learning successes, providing tailored support to help them reach their full potential.

Our teaching and learning approach is guided by the Victorian Curriculum and delivered using the Primary Years Program (PYP) framework of the International Baccalaureate® (IB)

LEADING THE WAY

Technology

We embrace the use of technology to enhance student learning. From a young age, students are introduced to technology to build their confidence and independence, while also learning about ethical and responsible technology use.

Our teachers integrate technology into their lessons, providing students with opportunities to develop digital literacy skills and engage with educational tools and resources. Through this approach, we aim to prepare our students for a digital future and equip them with the necessary skills to succeed in an ever-evolving technological landscape.
